Share Now!

We are back for Football Talk Friday #31! Today we are breaking down X Read Z Ghost, which is a great run-action Shot play.

With Triple Right Classy F-Short Bruce Pass Slice Right Z Around X Read Z Ghost we are stressing the defense by giving them a run action look, then hitting the X Read behind them. X Read is a route where the receiver tries to take the middle of the field until they can’t anymore and settles back to the Quarterback at 20 yards.

We are going to watch Tom Brady deliver a bullet to Chris Hogan for a 20 yard gain.

Check out the video breakdown below for all of the details, and remember you can also download a PDF copy of the play by clicking on the PDF Download link!
